Infamous New York public-access TV host and former porn actress Robin Byrd got one bite she wasn’t planning for over Columbus Day weekend — she was attacked by a raccoon on Fire Island and is now undergoing treatment for rabies while the creature’s still at large. (One irreverent fan of wild Byrd joked, “Yeah, I wonder what will show up in the raccoon?”)

Byrd — who’s known for hosting her “Robin Byrd Show” in a crocheted bikini since 1977 — told Page Six all the trouble started at her home in the Pines when her dog, Om, began barking.

“I stomped on the deck and I heard a growling, like, ‘Grrr,’” Byrd, 58, recalled. “I thought it was a cat.” But when she bravely shoved her hand behind a planter, what was actually a raccoon sunk its feral fangs into Byrd’s hand.

“I’m in Central Park all the time, there are raccoons,” Byrd explained. “I don’t go and touch them or anything. I guess I disturbed the raccoon and he didn’t like it and he let me know.”

After the attack, Byrd says she called what was a disconnected number for Suffolk County Animal Control Services, and that local police told her: “It’s their land,” and, “Leave them alone.” No one’s come to catch the critter, which would have to be tested to determine if Byrd has rabies.

“I’m thinking, ‘Oh my God, it may not be in the planter, but its somewhere out there,’” Byrd worries. She added the experience has been “very traumatic. I’m very afraid.”

She’s getting a series of shots against the disease, which can cause paralyzation, hallucination and death. “There’s five shots,” said Byrd — who also appeared in the 1970s films “Hot Honey,” “Bad Penny” and “Debbie Does Dallas” — of the rabies treatment. “I had my second one yesterday. The shots were more painful than the bite.” She added on Friday from Fire Island, “As we’re talking I have a deer staring me down. Two deer are cornering me. Wildlife!”

Byrd, who’s been imitated by Cheri Oteri on “SNL,” is currently being filmed for a documentary on her life. “My story has to be told before I leave this planet,” she mused.
